Today marks for you, the class of 1950, the
first step in a concerted effort to prepare your-
selves for a future of security through learning.
As freshmen that should be more aware of the
need for intelligent leadership and conscientious
study, you have chosen wisely a great and growing
university which offers the inquiring mind rich
experiences in purposeful living which give
meaning and direction to the years that follow
college life.
With scholarship as a prime requisite for
graduation, the university supplements academic
studies with many opportunities in extra-curri-
cular activity which benefit and equip one for
personal success and national usefulness.
You may feel complimented that the university
has written and published this handbook for you,
and you alone, as a concise and comprehensive
picture of the opportunities for you in extra-
curricular life. Once you have established your-
selves scholastically, the activities listed in this
guide for freshmen are yours to share and partici-
pate in for the next four years.
From this day forward, your future success
and happiness will depend to a great extent on
your initiative and ability to surmount the many
obstacles which you will encounter before gradu-
ation. This does not mean that you must meet
them alone, for as upperclassmen we offer you
our friendship and aid when and wherever your
needs are greatest.

"Hail, Ahna Mater
Hail to thee Maryland
Steadfast in loyalty
For thee we stand."
In these v/ords are echoed the sentiments of every
student of the University of Maryland . . . from the
beginning of the University's history in 1807 to you of the
class of 1950.
When the College of Medicine was founded in 1807 in
the City of Baltimore the history of the University began.
The Law School was added in 1823, the School of Den-
tistry in 1882, the School of Nursing in 1889, and the
College of Pharmacy in 1904.
Meanwhile, in 1856, the Maryland Agricultural College
was chartered, and became the second agriculture college
in the western hemisphere. This College, in 1862, became
a semi-state institution with the passage of the Land
Grant Act by the United States Congress.
The next milestone in the formation of the present
University was in 1920 when the Maryland Legislature
passed legislation combining the State College and the
University of Maryland under the latter name. Thus is
the chronological history of our University.
But history is more than dates and facts ... it is found
in traditions that have been built during those 140 years.
8
Among these are Testudo, the Terp, proudly guarding
the coliseum; the tunnel on the library green . . . ask your
date about that tradition; the Rossborough Inn, symbol of
a proud history; the Hello Habit . . . Maryland is a
friendly school; the annual freshman-sophomore tug-of-
war across Paint Branch . . . when the water is cold in
late fall; Homecoming, old grads get together and remi-
nisce; May Day, with its queen, maypoles, and Mortar
Board tappings; the many annual dances now being re-
vived . . . the Calvert Cotillion, the Military Ball, the Inter-
fraternity Ball, and the class proms; the dorms, holding
the memories of those who have passed before you; pub-
lications, the Diamondback on Fridays, the Old Line once
a month, and the Terrapin every spring. These are Mary-
land traditions , . . long standing, grown strong through
the years, and respected by all Maryland men and women.
History, with its accompanying traditions, has built
a spirit that is known and felt only by those who come to
Maryland and become a part of that history and tradi-
tion. When you feel that spirit you have become a true
''Old Liner" . . . it's a good feeling, freshman!

In publishing this little booklet, the older
students of the University are extending to
you a hearty welcome. It is thus made known
to you that all members of the Faculty, all
students of the University, all Administrative
officers are your friends, and stand ready to
help you.
Sometimes the impression of a University
is that it is a country club, and that students
do little more than go to athletic contests,
attend movies, dances, and so on. Do not be
mislead by such outward manifestations. Uni-
versity life is hard, a dull routine in which
men and women work long hours to achieve
their educational ambitions.
Remember, though, that no man or woman
has ever achieved anything, anytime, anywhere
without hard work. The faculty are your
friends, and wish to help you, but in the last
analysis you will not succeed except by your
own efforts. I know that you have come to the
University with high ambition and noble re-
solve, and that by diligence you will translate
these into actual achievements.
My office door is always open, and I look
forward to greeting you personally.
Sincerely,
President

It is a pleasure to
welcome the students
of the University of
Maryland and especi-
ally the new students.
Reconstruction of-
fers a real challenge
to each American. It
is going to be an in-
teresting and exacting
period. Cooperation
with your fellow stu-
dents, the SGA, and
faculty will help solve
the problem on our
campus. Allocate your
time so that you
have a well-rounded
plan to train yourself
mentally, morally, and
physically.
I would be pleased
to have you visit with
me for a sociable chat
or to discuss your per-
sonal or general stu-
dent problems.
Qe4ju^4f ^fXflUif
A hearty greeting to all
new students enrolling at the
University this fall . . .
whether recent high school
graduates or returned veter-
ans. We hope the years spent
on our campus will be happy,
worthwhile ones.
Yours is a grave responsi-
bility in these troubled years.
If we are to have a lasting
peace we must have coop-
eration and understanding
among all nations. We hope
that the University of Mary-
land will offer those experi-
ences in learning to get along
with different kinds of peo-
ple which all of us need if we
are to take our place as
world citizens.
May the learning be ac-
complished with real joy and
enthusiasm.

^i4^nci4J04444iXf, OJf tU^ B. Q. A.
The Student Government Association of the University
of Maryland is the official representative body of the under-
graduates. Members are chosen from the students, elected
by the students, and their primary and sole purpose is to
serve the students. A President, the most responsible
student officer on the campus, is elected in the spring, along
with other officers. The President supervises the work of
all organizations, and acts as an ex-officio member of each.
Three main divisions comprise the S.G.A. The Executive
Council, supreme governing body, decides student ques-
tions and formulates policy; the Men's and Women's
Leagues decide on, and enforce, all campus regulations;
and the entire student body who may attend meetings and
enter into the discussions. Only when the students are
alert, cooperative and sincerely interested, can the S.G.A.
prove a success. Meetings are held twice a month, or more
often.
Student activities are controlled by the S.G.A., and are
financed for the most part by an activities fee which is
paid by all students in the University. From this fee, the
money is prorated to the various activities, and the pay-
ment of this fee entitles a student to all the publications,
tickets to dramatic and operatic performances, and to
most student dances. Class dues are also included in this
fee.
Records of each organization, which are always open for
inspection, are kept by the administration. Furthermore,
each organizi-ition treasurer keeps his own records as a
check. All bills are vouchered and the accounts are
audited by the State Auditor at the end of each year.
The first issue of THE DIAMONDBACK prints a full
statement of the income and expenses of each group.

The Men's League was reactivated in the winter of 1946
by an order of the Executive Council of the Student
Government Association.
The purpose of the Men's League is to concern itself
with all problems relating to the men students; to pro-
mulgate projects for the improvement of campus life;
and to establish ideals, customs, and rules for the men
and administer them in cooperation with the Dean of
Men.
The League is divided into two sections : the Executive
Council and the Dormitory Council. The Executive Coun-
cil is made up of one representative from each class, one
representative from the Interfraternity Council, and one
elected member from the Dormitory Council. The Execu-
tive Council is headed by the League President. A Re-
cording Secretary is elected from these members.
The Dormitory Council is made up of one representative
from each dormitory or section. They elect a member from
their group and he sits in the Executive Council. The
Dormitory Council shall handle all dormitory students'
problems and discipline. The Vice-President of the Men's
League shall assist in the formation and composition of
the Dormitory Council.
41
MEN'S LEAGUE OBJECTIVES

working closely with the Dean of Men in the formu-
lation of rules of social decorum and conduct for

Every university has a duty to its resident women
students. Rules and procedure must be set up under which
an orderly and healthy social life may be pursued with a
minimum of regulation. Frequently this function of uni-
versity administration is a source of unending contention
and violation. However the women students of the Univer-
sity of Maryland are indeed fortunate. Women's League
is a democratic, self-governing organization with repre-
sentation from each house for women students on or near
campus. Daydodger girls interested in all Women's
League decisions other than those regarding campus resi-
dence are also a part of its organization. The officers of
the league are elected by the women students of the
University, and any woman student is privileged to attend
league meetings.
Aside from the regular activities of making and enforc-
ing rules, assisting the dormitory housemothers and con-
ducting house meetings, the league, in conjunction with
the women of the Junior Class, sponsors the annual May
Day celebration.
The league holds its business meeting once each week
at which subjects vital to the women of the campus are
handled. Rules violations judgments, plans for social cal-
endars, consultations with the Dean of Women's office,
and plans for various campus charity drives represent
typical business of the organization.
In conjunction with the Dean of Women, the league
plays a prime role in the interpretation of canipus rules
and their application.

Supplying the connecting link between the student body
and the University administration is the Student Life
Committee. This committee, appointed by the President,
is composed of faculty members who are actively inter-
ested in student affairs. In close touch with all activi-
ties, the committee acts in an advisory capacity and
attempts to improve any unsatisfactory conditions that
may exist.
Many and varied are the functions of the Student
Life Committee. During freshman orientation week the
committee sponsors the Freshman Mixer, a dance to ac-
quaint the new students with each other. In order that the
new students may meet the officers of the many clubs
and organizations on campus, the Student Government is
assisted in organizing a convocation in which the presi-
dents and chairman of all organizations are introduced.
The committee also assists Miss Rosalie Leslie, social
director, in the management of social affairs and the pro-
motion of a full year social program for the entire
campus.
All organizations must be recognized by the Student
Life Committee in order to exist and function at the
University. In its approval procedure of campus or-
ganizations, the committee encourages clubs that will not
be in competition with each other.
Dr. Charles E. White of the Chemistry Department is
chairman of the committee. Other members of the com-
mittee are: Prof. Russel Allen, Dr. Oliver Baker, Dr.
Rachel Benton, Prof. Barnett, Dr. Dudley Dillard, Dr.
Ray Ehrensberger, Dean Geary Eppley, Dr. Wolcott
Etienne, Col. H. C. Griswold, Dr. Susan Harman, Prof.
Charles Kramen, Dr. Fred Leinbach, Dr. Peter Lejins,
Miss Rosalie Leslie, Dr. Norman Phillips, Miss Alma
Preinkert, Prof. James H. Reid, Dean Adele Stamp.
56
Paralleled with the importance of studies, clubs offer to
students diversion, interest, and friendship which m the
long run create the more pleasant memories of college
life.
For every hobby or physical activity there is a club it
there are enough students interested in forming one. ihe
only requirements for affiliation with a social club are
personal interest and willingness to work for the group
you join plus a small amount of dues to cover costs.
On the following pages there are many clubs listed
v/hich are organized to meet the interests of the majority
of students.
The friendships alone which you will form through
any of these clubs warrant membership in them.

UNIVERSITY THEATRE
THEATRE STAFF
Dr. Ray Ehrensberger Dr. Edgar Wood
Dr. Charles Neimeyer Lyle Mayer
E. Parker Dupler Orville Larson
The University Theatre is a comparatively new organi-
zation at the University of Maryland. It was formally
organized in the fall of 1945 by Dr. Ray Ehrensberger,
head of the Speech Department. This season the Theatre
Staff, the Footlight Club, and a Student Staff produced
three highly successful shows. The opening production
was Noel Cowards' Ely the Spirit, which was performed
four consecutive nights, from November 14 through No-
vember 17, 1945. For the second production F. Hugh
Herbert's delightful hit comedy Kiss and Tell was selected.
The personnel of the University Theatre decided to stage
a five night run for this play. It was presented to an
enthusiastic student and faculty audience from April 2
through April 6, 1946. The third and final dramatic pre-
sentation of the season was the fascinating and intriguing
Angel Street, written by Patrick Hamilton. There was a
capacity audience for each of the five nights of production.
The Theatre Staff has planned a tentative produc-
tion schedule for the 1946-1947 season. They hope to pro-
duce four or five plays in the University Theatre during
the entire season. Claudia, The Little Foxes, Yes, My
Darling Daughter, or any other current Broadway pro-
ductions that are released for student production, will be
the possible selections for this season. A period play,
possibly one by Moliere, will also be presented.
Tryouts for these productions are announced approxi-
mately five weeks before play production, and any inter-
ested student is cordially invited to come out for the
tryouts.

Faculty Advisor Dr. Ray Ehrensberger
The Footlight Club has developed from the nucleus of
an extra-curricular club for undergraduate students,
who produced and staged three or four plays each scholas-
tic year, into a composite group of students who have
proved their ability in acting, interpretation, and stage
technique. Membership in the club is available to those
students who have demonstrated their ability by appearing
in University Theatre productions, or who have proved
their sincere interest by participating in conscientious
work back-stage. Upon recommendation, a prospective
member's name is submitted to members of the Speech
Department staff, who act in the capacity of an advisory
board for University Theatre productions, in consulta-
tion with the Executive Committee of the Footlight Club.
After final approval of both of these groups the newly
elected members of the Footlight Club are entitled to all
privileges of membership.
The Footlight Club undertakes several projects each
year in connection with the ultimate purpose of the Uni'
versity Theatre. This purpose is to provide the Univer-
sity of Maryland Vvith experienced student actors and
better facilities with which to present a well-rounded
dramatic schedule each year. Club members also partici-
pate in the production of the plays. They head the house
committees and organize the back stage work in coopera-
tion with the faculty technical advisor. The members, of
course, are eligible to try-outs for every play produced in
the Theatre.

Religious activities on the Maryland campus are co-
ordinated through the Religious Life Committee consisting
of both student and faculty representatives. This com-
mittee is charged with the guidance of campus denomina-
tional groups.
The initial activity of the Committee is the annual
religious life reception open to all new and old students.
The reception this year will be held Sunday September 22,
in the recreation hall of Anne Arundel from 6:30 to 9 p. m.
The traditional playing of Christmas carols from the
^^ower of Morrill Hall is carried out by the members o±
the Committee, who also arrange observances of religious
holidays.
Currently, the Committee is formulating plans for
the construction of a University interfaith chapel. These
plans were presented to Dr. Byrd and the Board of
Regents and, as a result a committee was appointed by
this group to determine the needs of the campus which
the erection of the chapel would attempt to fulfill. Through
this report it was decided that the chapel, m addition
to being used for interfaith and baccalaureate services,
vesper and musical programs, it could also provide offices
for counseling by the student ministers of each faith, as
well as become the center for all interdenominational
religious activities.
The student religious council which is composed of the
presidents of the campus religious organizations holds
meetings when they are deemed necessary and conducts
the monthly interfaith meetings.
The faculty committee consists of Rosalie Leslie, chair-
man; Dr. Charles E. White, Dr. Wesley M Gewehr, Har-
lan Randall, James H. Reid, Marion Johnson, Edna
McNaughton, and Arthur Hamilton.

A far cry from the Reveilles and Terra Mariaes which
appeared in the 1920's and 30's, the Terrapin offers within
its binding the widest possible coverage of each year of
college life. Acting as both a pictorial and a written
record of the year's activities, the Terrapin is awaited
by the student as one of the highlights of the year.
Attractively and novelty bound and containing informa-
tive articles with a variety of photos, the yearbook re-
quires almost a full year of preparation prior to publica-
tion. Included are photos of student life on campus, color
drawings, and many interesting features.
80
Like the Diainondhack, the Teri-aphi is financed by the
Student Government Association which last year appro-
priated over $11,000 for the publication.
The Terrapin, of. necessity, has a large and hard-
working staff. Those interested in yearbook work should
report to the Terraprn office in the basement of the Admin-
istration Building. Appointments will be made in the
same manner as for other publications.
THE DIAMONDBACK
Editor-in-Chief Bill McDonald
(Staff to be appomted)
This year the student newspaper The Diaynondhack
goes into its twenty-sixth year of publication. Since 1920,
the DBK, as it is affectionately nicknamed, has served the
student body of the University, expressing student thought
and publicizing student activities, while it also served as
an outlet for students interested in journalism.
First appearing as a tabloid and later growing into a bi-
weekly publication, The Diamondhack was issued once a
week during the war and last year. The staff plans to
publish the paper twice weekly as soon as possible.
Membership on the staff is open to anyone who shows
interest and some ability in collegiate newspaper work.
At the beginning cf each semester, incoming students
who are interested have an opportunity to meet the staff
and to attend Diamondhack training classes. No previous
experience is necessary.
The Diamondhack is sponsored and financed by the
Student Government Association and is a member of the
Associated Collegiate Press of the National Scholastic
Press Association. Work is not restricted to the editorial
field alone since there are also positions open on the busi-
ness and advertising staffs. Offices are located in the
basement of the Administration Building.

Absent from the campus during the war, the Old Line,
monthly student humor magazine, reappeared in early
1946, publishing two issues during the spring semester.
The 32-page magazine is a medium through which liter-
ary or art-minded students may express themselves by
writing or drawing. In the past, the Old Line has pre-
sented only the *'cream" of student creativeness and this
year it aims to be "bigger and better than ever."
Candidates for the staff should report to the Old Line
office in the basement of the Administration Building.
Appointments will be made in the same manner as on
other publications.
THE "M" BOOK
Published annually, the M Book is the official hand-
book for freshmen. In it is found information concerning
every phase of campus activity and every type of campus
organization.
The "Freshman Bible" or M. Book, is designed to
familiarize new students with the University and its
workings ; as well as to serve as a guide by which students
may adjust themselves to college life.
The M Book statf is chosen at the end of each school
year. Major positions are editor and business manager.

In keeping with the University's expansion program, a
College of Military Science, Physical Education, and Rec-
reation has been established for the purpose of providing
greater opportunities for students wishing to major in
military science and physical activities. The College is
under the direction of the Military Commandant and the
Head of the Physical Education Department.
The basic ROTC course is required of all male students
attending the University who have not completed basic
training in the armed forces of the . United States. In
addition to this, four semesters of physical education are
required. Students must successfully complete this course
in order to receive their academic displomas.
Advanced ROTC is open to students who have completed
the basic course or its equivalent in the armed forces.
The applicant must be at least 19 years of age when he be-
gins the course and must pass a physical and other quali-
fying examinations. The cadets for this training are then
selected by a military board from among the applicants
who have met the other requirements.
84
The advanced students serve as officers of the ROTC
regiment. Upon successful completion of the advanced
course and upon recommendation of the Commandant and
the President of the University, an advanced student
will receive a reserve commission of second lieutenant in
the Infantry. Commissions in the Signal Corps will be
awarded to advanced students who major in electrical
engineering.
The officers for the ROTC regiment will be appointed
by the Military Department this Fall.
Ever since its beginning in 1916 the ROTC unit at Mary-
land has won the coveted War Department rating of "gen-
erally excellent." This award is worn by all cadets in
the form of a blue star on the sleeve of their uniform
blouses.
In 1944 the Military Department moved into the New
Armory which is one of the finest in the country. Besides
a modern 10 point rifle range and main drill floor, it
houses the military offices, lecture rooms, and numerous
military property rooms. The Physical Education Depart-
ment also maintains offices and locker rooms in the
armory.
ROTC BAND
The ROTC Band is under the direction of Mr. Harold
Yeager of the Music Department. All members of the
ROTC who can play a musical instrument are eligible
for membership and are encouraged to join. The band
rehearses during military period and an extra scholastic
credit is given to the members. Martial music for parades

(This article is jwinted by request of the Interfratenity
Council)
The National Interfraternity Conference was founded
in 1909 for the purpose of discussing questions of mutual
interest and to make such recommendations from time to
time as it deems v.ise. It is composed of sixty-four
national fraternities which meet strict qualifications for
membership. Its annual conferences are attended by about
three hundred and fifty officers and alumni of the various
fraternities and about fifty deans of men and college
presidents. It sponsors the National Undergraduate In-
terfraternity Conference, composed of delegates from the
Interfraternity Councils on campuses all over the United
States and Canada, which meets in conjunction with the
Conference itself. It publishes a Year Book, the report of
its annual meeting, in which much valuable information
about college fraternity life is included.
In the fall of 1934, the Executive Committee of the Con-
ference and the Educational Advisory Council reduced to
writing the following criteria in order to advance further
co-operation between fraternities and educational insti-
tutions. The statement was subsequently approved by
the American Association of Deans and Advisers of Men
and by the Conference itself. It reads as follows:
We consider the fraternity responsible for a posi-
tive contribution to the primary functions of the col-
leges and universities, and therefore under an obli-
gation to encourage the most complete personal devel-
opment of its members, intellectual, physical and so-
cial. Therefore; we declare:
1. That the objectives and activities of the fra-
ternity should be in entire accord with the aims
and purposes of the instiutions at which it has
chapters.
98
2. That the primary loyalty and responsi-
bility of a student in his relations with his insti-
tution are to the institution, and that the associ-
ation of any group of students as a chapter of a
fraternity involves the definite responsibility of
the group for the conduct of the individual.
3. That the fraternity should promote conduct
consistent v^'ith good morals and good taste.
4. That the fraternity should create an atmos-
phere w^hich will stimulate substantial intellectual
progress and superior intellectual achievement.
5. That the fraternity should maintain sani-
tary, safe and wholesome physical conditions in
the chapter house.
6. That the fraternity should inculcate prin-
ciples of sound business practice both in chapter
finances and in the business relations of its mem-
bers.
These criteria should be applied in close co-operation
with the administrative authorities of the institutions.
Detailed methods of application will necessarily vary in
accordance with local conditions. It is the purpose of the
National Interfraternity Conference to offer detailed sug-
gestions, after further study and investigation, regarding
practical steps to make this co-operation effective.
99
^^uiten^iidiied.
The aim and dream of many a freshman is to attain
membership in a j^'reat college fraternity. To many, this
dream means luxury of living", a sense of superiority, a
good time among "brothers", and a shining pin to show
the home folks.
A fraternity or sorority should mean much more. It
should mean closer companionship with other men or
women with similar ideals who are pledged to raise the
moral, educational, and social standards of the group.
In a few weeks many will have the opportunity to join
one of these Greek letter organizations. The opportunities
for you to benefit from these affiliations are numerous,
but please keep in mind:
That your decision will probably have more effect on
your future life than any you have ever made in the
past.
That you are not an outcast if you do not receive the
bid you wish, or any bid — you may be too intelligent in-
stead of too backward to interest that particular organi-
zation.
That many of the potentially fine men have been com-
pletely buried in their fraternities.
That men in other fraternities may be worth cultivating
or keeping as friends. Some of your best friends in the
Freshman Class will not be in your fraternity. Do not
lose them.
That you are entitled to know the financial set up of
the fraternity that lushes you.
That it is neither any credit to you nor to a fraternity
to obligate yourself before the official pledge day.
And that your success or failure does not rely on
whether you make a fraternity or not, but on the initi-
ative and perseverance you show in either situation.

The Interfraternity Council was founded in 1926 for the
purpose of maintaining harmonious relations between the
University and the fraternities and among the fraterni-
ties themselves. Supervision of rushing and improvement
of the fraternity system at Maryland are the Council's
specific duties.
Membership on the Council consists of the presidents or
an elected delegate from each of the twelve fraternities.
The Council sponsors dances which are recognized as
campus traditions. One is planned for the Fall term and
another for the Spring term. Only fraternity members
and pledges are entitled to attend.
The Council also sponsors an interfraternity athletic
program. The Randall Memorial Cup will be awarded to
the fraternity winning the annual track meet in the spring
of 1947. Interfraternity scholarship and activities cups
are also presented each year to the fraternities outstanding
in these fields of endeavor.

PanlteUenic Q^ieea
"We, the fraternity undergraduate
members, stand for good scholarship,
for guarding of good health, for whole-
hearted cooperation with our college's
ideals for student life, for the mainte-
nance of fine social standards, and for
the serving, to the best of our ability,
of our college community. Good college
citienship as a preparation for good
citizenship in the larger world of
alumnae days is the ideal that shall
guide our chapter activities.
"We, the fraternity women of Amer-
ica, stand for preparation for service
through the character building inspired
in the close contact and deep friend-
ship of fraternity life. To us, frater-
nity life is not the enjoyment of special
privileges but an opportunity to pre-
pare for wide and wise human service."

The purpose of the Panhellenic Council is the main-
tainance of a wholesome sorority spirit and inter-sorority
relations within the University, to further sound scholar-
ship and high social standards, and to compile rules gov-
erning rushing, pledging, and initiation.
Council membership is composed of two delegates from
each campus sorority. Meetings are held weekly, although
the president is privileged to call special sessions at the
request of any representative. The offices are rotated
among the sororities in the order of their establishment
on campus.
In addition to formulating rush rules, Pan-hel is re-
sponsible for their enforcement. In the event of viola-
tions of the regulations, the Council decides the penalty
and its duration.
Included in the Panhellenic projects are scholarships
for women, a clothing drive, orientation for pledges, and
several lectures and round table discussions. In March,
1945, a workshop attended by National Panhellenic repre-
sentatives was held for the purpose of making necessary
revisions in the local Pan-hel Association.

This first year of peacetime athletic competition finds
varsity sports in a period of rejuvenation at the University
of Maryland.
Three of the school's traditional athletic leaders returned
last year from service with the armed forces to take up
the job of carryim^ the school through the coming sports
boom. Geary Eppley, director of athletics, Harvey Miller,
boxing coach, and Jack Faber, lacrosse coach, already have
helped set the wheels rolling in the giant sports program
planned here.
Clark Shaughnessey, returning to Maryland following
three years at the University of Pittsburgh, resumes his
job as head football coach.
Maryland teams compete in the Southern Conference,
an organization dedicated to the promotion and betterment
of all college athletics, and field teams in every major
sport.
In addition to the varsity sports program, Maryland
during the war became a leader in physical education for
students and is broadening that program this year.
Under the direction of Dr. Rachel Benton, a broad
women's physical education program is in effect, and many
of the coeds' extra curricular activities are handled
through her department.
As soon as building materials are available and the
necessary academic and student housing buildings are
completed, it is the proposal of University officials to
build a completely modern athletic plant. A stadium, seat-
ing 32,000 people, and a field house, seating 14,000 for
boxing and basketball, are on the present building schedule.
Maryland has the materials for a great varsity sports
program and, under the leadership of Dr. Byrd, long a
supporter of Maryland athletics, promises to rise rapidly
to the front.
130
Since the University of Maryland is a member of the
Southern Conference, it is natural for incoming freshmen
to ask, "just what is the Southern Conference?" The fol-
lowing" is written to help clarify this question.
The Southern Conference is the result of a movement
which was started years ago by the Southern Intercollegi-
ate Athletic Association to get together, into one com-
pact organization, those Southern institutions which were
progressive enough and numerically large enough to adopt
the rules and regulations long in force in the North, East,
and West.
The first attempts bore no fruit but the seed had been
sown in good soil. An organization was effected at
Atlanta, Georgia, in 1921 and the fundamental principles
on which the Conference should operate were laid down.
A draft of these rales and regulations was submitted to
the faculties of the institutions represented at the meet-
ing, and was ratified and adopted by fourteen colleges.
Included in the Southern Conference are the states of
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and
the District of Columbia.
The purpose of the Southern Conference is the promo-
tion of intercollegiate athletics in every form and to
regulate them by wise and prudent measures in order that
they may improve the physical condition and strengthen
the moral fiber of students and form a constituent part
of that education for which universities and colleges were
established and are maintained.
All athletics at Maryland operate under the direction of
the Athletic Board ccaiiposed of Geary Eppley, chairman.
Dr. William Kemp, Dr. William Supplee, Dr. Ernest Cory,
and Col. Harland Griswold.
131
VARSITY SPORTS
Varsity competition at the University of Maryland is
under the direction of Geary Eppley, director of athletics,
and is carried on in every major sport. These being foot-
hall, basketball, l)oxing', baseball, track (indoor and cross
country), lacrosse, g'olf, rifle, and tennis. In the past
wrestling and soccer were also on the list of varsity sports
at the university but during the war years these were
curtailed. This year play in soccer and wrestling may
be resumed.
FROSH SPORTS
Though the war has given the green light to varsity
sports at the home of the Terps, the red light is still
shining as far as the freshmen sports parade is concerned.
Not until the government's draft situation is settled will
Maryland again foster freshmen sports.
INTRAMURAL SPORTS
In addition to the varsity sports program a vast intra-
mural program is also carried out at Maryland under
the supervision of the Physical Education Department.
All students are eligible to compete in a variety of tourna-
ments, including touch football, basketball, softball, box-
ing, ping pong, tennis, track and a host of others.
Intramural competition is held by members representing
the dormitories, fraternities, sororities, independents, as
well as the daydodger groups.

Clark Shaughnessy, master of the T formation, returns
to College Park this year to resume duties he abandoned
several years ago when he became head coach at the Uni-
versity of Pittsburgh.
Shaughnessy will find on hand a picked squad of grid-
ders which Paul Bryant, the 1945 Terp mentor, brought
with him from the North Carolina Preflight school, and
with which he was able to win six of last year's games,
losing two and tying one. Add to Bryant's veterans re-
turning Liners Jack "Reds" Wright, Hubey Werner, Bob
James, and possibly others, and Old Line rooters have a
bright picture.

'"'^Wiii.i
Maryland boxing' is on the upswing again with the
return of Heinie Miller as head coach. Miller took over
the squad last season after five years of active duty in the
Marine Corps and after a slow start the Terps wound up
the year with a record of 3 victories against 5 defeats.
Veteran ringman Tommy Maloney, the team captain,
and Ken Malone and newcomer Phil Rogers formed the
nucleus of the club, with the latter proving one of the
gamest men seen in a Maryland ring. Maloney and
Malone will be on hand to carry Liner colors this year,
but the rest of the squad is a weighty problem.

system, came up with one of the surprises of the Southern
Conference basketball season in his 1945-46 Terrapins.
Shipley guided the team to an impressive record and
advanced into the semi-finals of the Conference champion-
ship.

Coach Jack Faber
Assistant Al Heagy
Jack Faber returned during the 1946 season to send a
Terrapin squad back onto the fields they so consistently
dominated in prewar years — lacrosse, the game the Amer-
ican Indians founded.
Recognized in the late thirties as the outstanding col-
legiate lacrosse power in the nation, Maryland faced the
1946 schedule with little other than reputation, the best
coach in the business, and a sprinkling of experienced
players. Faber will find Bob Fetters and Jack Hoyert,
stars of the 1946 club, missing come first practice, but in
their place will be a thirty-player squad which has one
year in his tuteledge, and which promises an improve-
ment over this year's showing.

of twelve won and five lost, and most of the standouts

Maryland colors returned to Track competition last sea-

pin's all-time great middle-distance men, and the Liners
won three out of six out door meets.
Led by Ed Matthews, their crack quarter-miler, the
Terps competed in the Southern Conference indoor meet.
The event marked the first appearance of Liners on the
boards since the war began, and Kehoe contemplates full-
fledged competition indoors and cross-country this year.

RIFLE
Coach Col. H. C. Griswold
Possessing- what is considered the finest indoor rifle
range in the country (according to the National Rifle
Association) the University of Maryland riflemen under
the direction of Col. Harland Griswold assisted by Sgt.
Fay Norris went through their season with an impressive
record of 23 victories as against 13 setbacks in postal
matches. In shoulder to shoulder competition the Terps
won seven contests and lost five.
In addition to the regular intercollegiate competition
the Old Liner's came in third in the Hearst Trophy con-
test, second in the Service Command Matches and ranked
among the top ten teams in the country in the National
Intercollegiate Team Matches.
The rifle range is located in the basement of the new
Armory and is of the most modern design. Through the
cooperation and promotion of Col. Griswold, the range has
developed into one of the centers of rifle activity for this
area and is the scene of outstanding meets of eastern
riflemen.
Members of the rifle team receive the same varsity
"M" awards as the other teams. All male students,
whether taking ROTC or not, are eligible to tryouts for
the team. Exact dates for tryouts will be announced by
Col. Griswold and will be published in the Diaviondback.
139
TENNIS
Coach Doyle Royal
With the appointment of Doyle Royal as the Old Liner's
new tennis coach the Terps were once again represented
in Southern Conference tennis competition.
The team composed of five purple heart men, of which
three also wore the silver star, went through the season
to chalk up five wins as against three defeats. Big guns
of the team were DeWitt Smith and Ed LaBerge.
This year Coach Royal will have only Ed LaBerge as
the power man on the squad as Smith will be leaving, but
still Coach Royal, with his eyes on "two promising mem-
bers in the making," believes the team will be greatly
strengthened by the recent influx of the men students on
the campus.

James Kehoe, Men's Director
Dr. Rachel Benton, Women's Director
During the war years when physical fitness of every
person in America was being stressed, Maryland Univer-
sity took the lead in building one of the finest intramural
athletic programs in the nation. Under the direction of
Dr. Rachel Benton and Jim Kehoe, the men's and women's
athletic departments are carrying on that program with
even wider participation than was thought possible.
The games are played on the athletic fields and in the
field houses and gymnasiums of the University under the
eyes of trained officials.
Members of winning teams are awarded miniature
prizes with the organization being awarded a trophy.
The women's teams yearly compete for the Sigma Kappa
sorority trophy which is presented to the house compiling
the most points through placing first, second, or third in
team competition during the seasons.

WOMEN'S RECREATION
ASSOCIATION

Treasurer Aimee Loftin
The Women's Recreation Association sponsors all
women's athletic tournaments, playdays, and weekly after
dinner dances. Under the direction of its adviser, Dr.
Rachel Benton, this organization has developed steadily
in the last few years.
During the past year WRA held competitions in hockey,
bowling, basketball, volleyball, and badminton. The man-
agers for each of these tournaments were appointed from
the roster of the WRA. Teams representing all of the
various sororities and women's dorms, as well as the
daydodgers and faculty, are entered in these contests.
All of the activites, with the exception of bowling, are
carried on in both the Women's Field House and the Gym.
The bowling tournament is played off at the University
Bowling Alleys.
Two years ago the association developed a system
whereby all games would be referreed by recognized offi-
cials. All women students interested in winning their
officiating badge must pass a written as well as prac-
tical examination, prepared by the board, for each sport
in which they wish to officiate.
Playdays are arranged whenever possible with George
Washington University, American University, Hood Col-
lege, and Maryland State Teachers' College.

Maryland University's Varsity "M" Association was
founded in 1942. The purpose of the Association is to
foster better intercollegiate athletics and to sponsor intra-
mural competition.
The Club serves as a medium for uniting male students
w^ho have similar interests and who desire to see the
University outstanding in athletics.
In addition to providing judges and referees for intra-
mural sports, the association sponsors campus dances and
plays an active role in the annual homecoming event.
Membership to the Association is open to all wearers
of the Varsity M.

cheers. Although concerned primarily with promoting
support for teams in action, the cheer leaders perform the
task of instilling the traditional Maryland spirit through-
out the student body. They are the organizers of the pep
rallies and are responsible for teaching songs and yells to
incoming freshmen.
The organization is divided into varsity and junior
varsity groups, with one year's service on the JV required
for varsity participation. Tryouts for the group are held
at the beginning of each year.

SONS OF OLD MARYLAND
(Tune: "Sons of America")
Arranged by Harlan Randall
Sons 01 old Maryland,
Old Maryland needs you!
Stand by your colors, boys,
And to them e'ver be true!
Fight for old Maryland,
Old Liners! stand.
Defenders of the Black and Gold
Throughout the land.
U. OF M.
(Tune: "Caisson Song")
U. of M., L. of M.,
Keep the ball away from them.
Keep that pigskin a-rolling along!
Up the field, down the field.
Not an inch of ground we'll yield,
Keep that pigskin a-rolling along —
Then it's Whiff! Wham! Whack!
Hear that Maryland quarterback
Shout out his signals loud and strong!
Where'er you go, you will always know
That the pigskin is rolling along,
(shout) Maryland! Maryland!
Keep that pigskin a-rolling along!

Words by A. Manley Powell, '41
Music by Wilmer Orpwood, Jr., '43
Drink to the Terrapin !
All bold hearted men.
We have no fear of hell.
For we're loyal sons and fellows.
Drink tc the Terrapin !
May God bless her sons!
When the toast is in the cup,
Bottoms up! Bottoms up!
To Maryland.
VICTORY SONG
Words and music by Thornton W. Allen
Down on the field they're fighting,
Pride of the Black and Gold.
Men, every one of them,
Warriors of U. of M.
Our honor they'll uphold.
On toward the goal they're marching.
It will not take them long.
So, let's give a cheer,
For the men we hold dear,
And sing to them our Victory Song.
Chorus
Maryland, we're all behind you;
Wave high the Black and Gold,
For there is nothing half so glorious
As to see our men victorious;
We've got the team, boys.
We've got the steam, boys.
So keep on fighting, don't give in!
(Shout) M-A-R-Y-L-A-N-D!
(Sing) Maryland will win!

THE OLD STONE WISHING WELL
Words and music by Milton S. Cole, '42
Down by the Old Stone Wishing Well,
We will meet again tonight;
There we will wander as they did in old times,
While the stars made the gateway a shrine.
Where the old covered wagon has been so many years,
It is there our hearts will lose all fears,
Down by the Old Stone Wishing Well,
It is there our every dream will come true.
MARYLAND! MY MARYLAND!
Words by James R. Randall
Arranged by Thornton W. Allen
(Tune: "O Tannenbaum")
Thou wilt not cower in the dust,
Maryland! My Maryland!
Thy beaming sword shall never rust,
Maryland! My Maryland!
Remember Carroll's sacred trust,
Remember Howard's warlike thrust.
And all thy slumb'rers with the just,
Maryland! My Maryland!
I hear the distant thunder hum,
Maryland! My Maryland!
The Old Line bugle, fife and drum,
Maryland! My Maryland!
Come! to thine own heroic throng.
That stalks with Liberty along.
And ring thy dauntless slogan song.
Maryland! My Maryland!
